Before in Confluence 6.6.1, I could put a return after a panel to give it space before the next panel. In Confluence 6.14.3, the space goes away and the panels look squished. Besides for coding or turning a period white so it is invisible, is there a way to have padding around a panel macro? Thanks, Jonathan

To Atlassian Team members: With Oracle now charging for Java upgrades, do we as consumers need to worry about this or does our Confluence/JIRA license cover the installed Java?

What would be some good filler content I can…

All, After updating our Confluence logo (which has a darker color of blue in the background), the panel macro's border becomes bold or dark blue.

Afternoon everyone, Sometimes building a template can be a challenging, but here is something which might help you ... at least in the page properties section.

T-minus 1 week until the Confluence administrator exam... I am super nervous. Anyone have any tips on taking the exam?

I think the hardest part of this test is to…
